How to join

Example of a class exercise

When your dog gets more experienced, we do exercises where other dogs are a distraction. Here is an example of four handlers sending their dogs to a bed, despite the presence of other dogs and beds. (The first handler is out of sight of the camera.)The dog is taught to stay on the bed until released, even if other dogs are moving near by.

... And finally the dogs must stay on the bed while all the handlers return, as shown here with a different set of handlers and dogs.
